NEW – Martin Custom Shop Acoustic D-style Cocobolo with Adirondack Spruce Top. This is an amazing looking and sounding guitar!!

Then as I walked around the NAMM show, the thought of the guitar was freaking me out so I had to go back to check it out again.

SOLD – one of my favorite guitars! The Martin D-7 Roger McGuinn Special Edition with a factory installed Fishman Matrix Infinity Pickup. This is the last D-7 that Martin had left and we got it at Fab Gear!! The 7-string guitar might be the coolest musical invention since the capo. Yes, SEVEN strings. The 7th string doubles the G string and gives a lush 12-string sound to chords. The single bass and treble strings mean you can play lead and bass lines just like you would on a 6-string. The D7 is a new and more affordable version of the HD7 Roger McGuinn introduced in 2005. – D size, solid rosewood and Sitka spruce, hybrid scalloped bracing, gloss finish with aging toner, ivoroid binding. Modified V-shape neck, 1-3/4″ nut, ebony fretboard & bridge. Inside label numbered and signed by Roger McGuinn.

NEW – Martin OMCPA1 Performing Artist Electric Acoustic. The best of the old Martin style and tone with the ultra modern state of the art Fishman F1 Aura pickup system. The OMCPA1 Performing Artist series is crafted using nothing but the finest tonewoods. Martin takes the acoustic/electric on an evolutionary journey, equipping these axes with the Fishman F1 Aura. Far more than a simple pickup system, the F1 Aura combines high-end acoustic sound images, an onboard digital tuner, a compressor, a phase control, an EQ, and anti-feedback control. In short, it’s everything that you need to be in complete control of your onstage sound. Coupled with the tonewood selection, this is truly a huge step forward for amplified acoustic guitar. This is the Performing Artist OMCPA1, a well-balanced instrument that’s great for any style of music.
